Beanie level: Errand boy

I was supposed to be making TLAHL posts for you but instead I did like three washes and made a cake… O.O

      Idk man… cake is pretty good… although I’m sure TLAHL WITH cake would be the best combination…

        True true!
        Maybe you could even start singing that Red Velvet song about cake! 😂

          … *only knows like two RV songs* *woops*
          Maybe our next TLAHL Drama Date will be cake instead of ramen. Actually making red velvet cake to eat whilst watching would be pretty cute… heh.

            It’d be quite appropriate, yes. 👌🏼😄

            But overall, food + K-dramas = happiness

            You know how to make red velvet cake? That’s pretty cool! I only know how to make basic cakes!

            I am more of a whiskey/beer/soju kinda girl.. but yeah food+kdrama+drinks is about perfect!

          Don’t like beer, whiskey yes, soju yes, but both are out of the roof expensive here. 😛
          I mean, my wine tastes are expensive too… but you can find medium range nice ones. Not that I even drink that often…

          Also uhm no I don’t know how to make Red Velvet cake but I’m good at following a recipe hahahaha! Also red velvet cake is just chocolate cake with red food colouring in it…

          3
          1

            We have good ones, yes. But none in my area.. I live in the suburbs which is mostly a residential area and the really good ones are in the more commercial zones.. Also the really good bakeries are really expensive!

            I don’t go often though.. I love home-made food more than anything else so I only eat cakes/pastries on birthdays, some times when we eat out and the very rare times I bake at home- mostly eggless chocolate or apple cake..

          Ahhh of course… all the good things are far away and expensive… hahaha

          Ah fair enough. Lol if you ever come here I’ll take you to meet my sister… she’s always baking hahaha (MY REAL UNNIE HEHEHE)
          Eggless Chocolate?

          1
          1

            Ah yes! Reality of life!😅

            Deal! (Lol the day when your real unni meets your virtual one! Actually 2 virtual unnis.. I am imagining Kaybee will be visiting with me! 😁)

            Yup! My grandmom is a pure vegetarian… and if I am baking something, she always wants to try and gets irritated if I even think of making anything with eggs! Tastes good though.. I put home-made curd and a bit of milk.. it doesn’t fluff up as much but tastes really nice and doesn’t have that eggy smell

          Oooh… so is she vegan??
          Hahaha that’s nice that you accomodate her though, and I’d eat it just from your vague description so, there you go! haha

            (😊😊 Has she met any of your weird internet friends though?)

            Yuss… she is! And thank you, I shall bake it for you when we meet then! *no that is not a threat* *I am just being nice*.. oh of course you will have to bake us sth good too!… why is this far-in-the-future trip sounding like a food trip! I will come to travel around NZ, not for food! 😝

    I 100% relate to unplanned baking. (See: midnight brownies from two nights ago.)

    Plus who doesn’t love cake?

      Kekekeke although it was semi planned because I had bananas that needed using. 😛 (you and your midnight brownies… just wait, that’ll be me one day)
      I know lots of people that don’t actually but I like to pretend that everyone does.

        I mean, when it comes to the cake v. pie debate, I’m pretty firmly on team pie (PIE IS DELICIOUS, FIGHT ME) but I still love cake. I have room in my heart(disease) for both.

        Banana cake? Sounds delicious…which reminds me, I should use up some of the bananas in my freezer and make some banana bread sometime soon. Maybe my next midnight baking project.

          Tiramisu is my favourite dessert and that’s neither pie nor cake… so \o.o/
          A well made cake is delicious indeed.

          Banana cake indeed! It’s quick making time and is great to use them overripe bananas sitting on the bench going black… kekeke
          Oooooh yes! I approve!

            I made a lot of banana bread and apple cake when I was in uni, since we always had a lot of both and they were easy to make.

            Technically, ice cream is my favorite dessert, but I’m really game for pretty much anything but a fruit plate. (I mean, fruit is nice, but if you really care about me you’ll give me something that will shorten my lifespan also.)

            6
            0

          Ah yes, nice! We have four apple trees and every second year we get a bumper crop so… needless to say there’s a lot of apple desserts. haha

          Pffffahahahaha! I looooove fruit. Especially seasonal ones. Peaches, watermelon, cherries… but I don’t really consider them dessert. More like, after dessert… if there is a bowl of cherries, I will eat the whole thing if you let me loose… hehe

          6
          1

            Yeah, my aunt used to send me massive bags of apples from her trees in uni so we’d have loads (but there were six of us in our house so they got eaten). Many many apple pies and cakes were made.

            There’s nothing wrong with fruit, per se. As I get older I appreciate it more, and I love my seasonal fruits. (Tomorrow is farmer’s market day and I’ve been loving the end of season peaches and raspberries which have been particularly good this year.) But my mother thinks it’s acceptable to cut up an apple and call that dessert. I’ve let her know I’ll have none of that nonsense when I’m at home.

          Ahhhhhhhh the life. Maybe… at least in terms of apples.

          OH FOR IT TO BE SUMMER HERE ALREADY SO I CAN EAT MY SUMMER FRUITS
          Pfffffft no. No that is not a dessert lmao!!!
          Like you said, something that SHORTENs one’s life span is by far the most acceptable dessert.

    Haha, @irishrah told me about your TLaHL posts and how it’s garnering so much love (no surprise), and oh boy, I’ve got A LOT to catch up on! Have fun with TLaHL, but don’t forget that we still need to finish Project Moonlight! Haha.

    Three washes? Like, laundry? Do you live alone, mate?
    What kind of cake didja make?

      Hehehe… yes my LAHL watching has finally begun.
      OH I AM AWARE OF THAT VERY MUCH. I am probably gonna end up bingeing it since October is fast approaching! Eeek!

      Laundry, yes, and no, I don’t… we just hadn’t done a wash in a couple days so I did a towel wash, a wool wash, and washed one of the rugs from the lounge.
      BANANA! 😀

        I totally thought the same, too! We still have a little over a month, but I’ve also been taking my sweet li’l time, but idk why I’m so lazy to watch it.

        Ahhh, I see, I see.
        Mm. Bananas are my least favorite kind of fruit/flavor, but I think a banana cake sounds pretty good. It’s definitely a more fun alternative to finish bananas in the house!

        2

          Ugh same… I have so many dramas on the go right now, like what am I doing, idk…

          I seem to remember we had a conversation about you not liking bananas… hahaha
          Have you ever had it before?

            Smh… idk either, Sic, I really do not know. 😂 It’s ‘kay! We goin’ do this! We got this. *folds arms and leans to the side and waits for you to do the same so we can be in this cool and confident pose together* … don’t ask, just do. 🙃

            Totally! I told you before in one of my posts! Have you tried the famous Korean banana milk that they always drink in K-dramas? It was definitely not as good as I thought it’d be.
            Banana cake? I don’t think I have! But I can kinda imagine the taste, though. Haha. Was yours fluffy?

          Now I want banana milk. But better stuff.
          YOU HAVEN’T? Wow… not as fluffy as it could be but it was still tasty tasty.

            Ha, idk if I’ve tried The Famous Banana Milk, either, tbh, but it was meh. I’ll give it another chance the next time I see it, just to really be sure.
            Ooh! Better stuff than banana milk is this:

            This stuff is delicious! Have you ever tried these?

            I haven’t! I’ll look up a recipe one day and let you know when I give it a shot! … or if I ever run into some banana cake irl, I’ll just buy some! Haha.

Soooo The Liar and His Lover watching has commenced with @burgundy.
I’m not sure if I’m ready for all your upvotes but uhm I bought that upon myself earlier so whatever, can’t complain, I exploit you all and we all know it.
Episode 2 finished tonight. I don’t know what was more fun, the drama, or making snarky comments whenever Han Gyeol did something. (In the nicest possible way. We both love him ok)
However… I am WAY TOO TIRED TO POST MULTIPLE SCREEN CAPS TONIGHT SO YOU’LL JUST GET MORE TOMORROW OK. OK.
Short version: we both like it so far, and we laughed a lot.
Especially during this entire scene pfffffffffffffffffffffffffft

      Good friends exist to embarrass you, obviously. It’s like their sole purpose for being on planet earth. When they’re no longer capable of embarrassing you, the mothership will come pick them up and put them in a Venusian (yes that is now a word) or Martian retirement home, because they’ll no longer be of any use to the Vorgons. At least that’s what someone once told me, but he didn’t have a towel with him, so clearly he must not have been in his right mind.

      Oh, and hi! Welcome to DB, hope you have fun in the black hole 👋

      (@sicarius I’m now wondering how much fun one could have in an actual black hole and came to the conclusion that since movies etc have told me everything gets sucked into them, that means there will be amusement parks and toys and people from the 50s doing the hand jive and it has to be the most entertaining place on earth. Or well, in the universe. Whatever. We should go. You free tomorrow?)

            Aw, haha. How’d you spoil yourself? Just ran into spoilers on here or…?
            And I know what you mean. I’m usually very much a spoiler-free freak, but some shows, I won’t mind seeing stuff for, but then there are some shows that I really just do not wanna see anything for because I want to preserve my mind for all the surprises when I finally get to watch it. Even though it’s literally just harmless thumbnails on YouTube or screenshots! *closes eyes and covers ears*

            Haha, might as well just wait until it’s complete and all the subs are available! Save yourself from the torture!!! Huhuhu~ I just realized there’s only 12 eps this season, too. *cries*

            1
            0

          Ah so what happened was that I got 4 episodes in and got overly invested in Sunbae and her chef, and so wanted to see if it ended well (possibly because I didn’t have time to finish it, or it was a bit slow at the beginning or something)… so I skimmed the recaps just for her part of the story.
          So you could say I went looking for spoilers? hahahaha
          I’m pretty chill when it comes to spoilers. Sometimes I like none if it’s the day that I will watch something, but if it’s a few episodes ahead and I’m catching up then more and more I’m like ‘eh’.
          But like you say it really depends on what it is. 🙂

          But then there isn’t the same connection you know, I’d like to watch it with the beanies who are watching it at the moment. Not that not watching it has stopped me for commenting on posts hahaha
          I know! So short… and yet, a good length? I liked that Shut Up FBB was only 12 too.

          Ha, I was mostly talking about myself, since I figured that wasn’t the first thing y’all talked about… but I’d definitely share that part of myself if I was talking to someone and we really clicked, y’know? I’d find a good time to just slide that li’l piece of important info into the conversation. Haha. K-dramas are lyfe, yo.

          One time in high school, I met this girl on my bus and we really hit it off, and she tells me she has this Korean friend and I’m all like, “Oh wow, that’s cool,” and she was like, “yeah, so do you like K-pop?” and I was like, “Yeah! *freaks out*” We kept talking about K-pop and probably K-dramas, and then she was all like, “Oh, btw, I don’t actually have a Korean friend. I just said that because I thought you were Korean and I wanted to talk about K-pop with you.” Lawl. True story.

            I actually realised that AFTER commenting that… my brain is not doing great today haha.

            Hahaha same though! Like ‘oh what TV shows do you like?’ leads to ‘I watch nothing in English’ or ‘Korean TV mostly…’ 😛 Lots of my friends know that now actually from said info drops.

            HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA WAY TO START A CONVERSATION LOL make up a friend lmao!!!
            That’s hilarious. Are you still friends with her?

          Oh dear, idk where this comment is going, but hope you’ll be able to follow.

          I actually tend to hold back on voicing my love for K-dramas and K-pop culture to people unless we’re friends or like, click really well. If I’m comfortable with a person and we end up talking about interests and shows, then I’ll probably share my love for all things SK, but if it’s like an icebreaker between classmates or coworkers, I probably wouldn’t announce it in front of everyone, despite many many tempting moments in the past!

          And HA, ikr? It was so weird, but I thought it was cute that she even went outta the way to make up a friend/lie just to talk to me–about something that I really really like, no less!
          Nah, we were only bus buddies. Idk where she is now, but I hope she’s doing well.

            I can follow! And I’m the same I think!
            Sometimes with strangers I adopt a ‘I’m weird deal with it’ icebreaker mood so I drop all sorts of things, but usually I’d warm up to the person before dropping the Korea bomb haha.

            Bus buddies were/are the best though. Funny how you can like only be friends with someone on a school bus and not at school but sometimes it works. Man, good times on the school bus for me, not gonna lie. I used to hate the bus as a smaller kid, but in High School I liked it 😛 Especially my last year, when I was often the only senior without a car, so I’d be 1 senior with a bunch of my junior friends on the back seat of the bus like ‘pls I am the oldest respect me’ lol 😛 but in a nice teasing way… I hope 😀 haha

    Wow. Beanies here have a serious bias for drama end of the year votes. What kind of ramen is that?

      I know right. Hahaha.
      Ahhh it’s Nong Shim, but I add my own stuff to it as well, like soy sauce, ginger, garlic and veges.

        I saw the pic of the pack you posted a little lower down after reading this. I actually really like that ramen. It’s a little bit like the cadillac of pack ramen. Had this, then I had Nissin ramen. It’s difficult to go back to Nissin. The quality of the noodles alone is so much better let alone the seasoning and dried veggies that come with it. Have you tried the black pack one? Have you ever tried adding Ajitsuke Tamago (seasoned boiled egg) to it? ? I wonder how this would taste with a little gochugaru. Ah jeeze, I need this in my life now.

        2
        4

          Ahahaha the cadillac of pack ramen, so true!! The quality of noodles is so good! Comparitively to other kinds of minute noodles in NZ… Shin just has way better noodles.
          Oh I forgot, I also add a boiled egg hehe. It’s not really seasoned though… maybe I should try that?? Still learning things about Ramen though. So I haven’t had the black pack yet… is it spicier?
          I sort of just make do with what I have, rather than make anything super official haha.
          HAHAHA Talking about ramen always makes me hungry!!

          2
          1

            I can’t remember it being any spicier–but then again I have a high tolerance for spicy food. I think I’m mixing them up though. How many spice packs does the red one have? I think the black one has three (3): two (2) soup bases and one (1) dried veggie pack. It’s creamier and I think the noodles are a bit different too.

            I absolutely love Ajitsuke Tamago. They’re so good, you can eat them by themselves. It’s Japanese though, but it’s a nice fusion.

            2
            0

          *does not* *have a high tolerance* *for spicy food* *unless she eats it really slowly over about an hour+ hehe*
          Oooooh two spice packs!? Now I MUST try. The red one only has one. But I have a 6 pk of that to use, so when that is finished, I will check out the black one.
          I haven’t really been brave enough to try other kinds… there are so many kinds and I wouldn’t even know where to start but now I do. So thank you haha

          I just looked up the recipe for Ajitsuke Tamago. My brother bought mirin the other day… so this is something I could actually do. I just need sake though. That’s probably expensive here.
          Pffft Ramen is Japanese originally I believe. Ramyun is just the Korean version. Although I just looked it up and some people think it might be Chinese in origin so it’s basically fusion already 😛

            I’m such an idiot. I was replying to your post and then got a msg that I posted too many links. Argh. I should have copied my post before posting it. Oh well. I’ll have to post the links separately. So, I think I posted something to the effect of:

            I love food! lol. I think you’re right on the Ramyun being influenced by Japanese Ramen. China and Europe have influenced much of Asian cooking I think. Jajangmyeon has Chinese influence. The really fancy versions of Omurice is a french omelette over rice, although I’ve never seen the same version in Korean cooking–it’s more a crepe-like omelette.

            Sake is not all that necessary to make Tamago. You can make Shoyu Tamago which I love. The recipe will be in the reply below this. The only problem with that recipe is that it calls for a good amount of mirin. Speaking of mirin, be careful of the one you use. Some of them are pretty much glorified sugar water. I’ll include a link describing the difference between aji and hon mirin. Hopefully your brother got the latter. I’ve been told a good brand to use is Eden–I’ve used it myself. Either way, it shouldn’t be too much of a problem with the mirin you use.

            I hope you can try it. Let me know how it turns out if you do. Happy cooking/experimenting!

            Also forgot to say, I really don’t like the Nongshim Shin Big Bowl Ramyun, although I don’t know why it got so many good reviews on Amazon. The reason I don’t like it is because the noodles aren’t good. You should still try one if ever given the opportunity just to see though.

          Ahhh yes pesky thing only lets you post one link per comment. I guess to avoid spam? *shrugs*
          I learnt the hard way to try and copy every post I make before posting… I think I typed up a full 3000 character thing and then it said “inappropriate word”… I had to make an entire separate post to try and figure out what the word was hahaha. That being said I should copy more often O.o

          Hahaha! I noticed! Actually you seem to comment a lot on food related things! hehe
          Jajangmyeon does indeed. I once read a fascinating argument somewhere about whether it was Chinese or Korean… I think they concluded it was ‘Korean Chinese’ aren’t they just geniuses? hahaha

          I love people like you. You make my life a lot easier and I get to learn new things along the way hahaha Thanks for the recipe and tips!
          I just went and checked and it is ‘Takara Hon Mirin’ so yay, the good one. I think Takara is the brand? But I can’t read Japanese so I don’t know for sure *shrugs* I don’t know where you live but I wouldn’t be surprised if NZ (where I am) has different imported brands to you guys (wherever you are).

          Because we all like different things and have different tastes buds? And just because something is popular doesn’t mean one will like it haha.
          I haven’t had it although I do believe it is available at our local Asian supermarket so I will definitely try it out at some point.

          And for sure will post my Asian cooking adventures on here! Do you just really like food hence why you know so much about it or have you like, studied it or something?

          2
          1

            According to the internet, looks like you got some really good mirin there. I’m a bit jealous now. Yeah, Takara seems to be the brand name. I live in the Americas, so we don’t get too much of the good stuff, at least where I’m at, or it’s really difficult to find.

            I just like all things food. For the past year or so I’ve been really into Asian cooking. I sometimes make my own ramen from scratch (Shio, Shoyu, and Miso–I don’t like Tonkatsu very much, or at least the one I made), oyakodon, kimchi, many different kinds of fried rice, samgyeopsal-gui, fried chicken (치킨 and karaage) etc. Wish I could make a really good Pho Bo, but I tend to have to settle for Pho Ga at home. 😞 I’m going to try to make Jajangmyeon for the first time tomorrow. Hope it comes out good.

            Oh, it’s definitely been around forever now, but hey, it’ll be a trend here on DB, since you don’t really see a lot of Beanies post about their rl much. I told my sister I wanted to post a pic like you here, and she was like, “you did, with Goblin at Subway,” and I was like, “Oh yeah!” Haha. But definitely wanna take more food x K-drama pics, though, since it happens more often than not. Also, it’s like, the perfect combo.

          No they don’t really! But that’s understandble, they come here for kdrama, and some people are quite private about that kind of thing and that’s fine.
          However, you get a lot of cool stories on the OT!
          Oooooh you did??? I don’t know if I saw that one… *tries to remember*
          You can tell your sister that I’m replying to all your comments whilst listening to BTS’ new album… 😛

            Omg, mukbangs… that’s very much a thing, yes. A big thing! Idk how some of these people can EAT ALL THAT FOOD in one sitting. Oh wait, I know–$$$. Ha.

            Totally.
            I enjoy the majority of the Beanies’ posts, whether it be of their rl, the shows they’re watching, and/or the music they’re listening to. I do a li’l bit of everything, as you can see. Whatever I’m comfortable enough to share.
            I’ve been so bad with participating in the main part of the site nowadays, but I love that there are many stories shared on OT Fridays!

            Hmm… you probably didn’t, because I don’t remember talking to you on that post… unless you saw it and didn’t comment. Haha. I’ll try to find it later and share it with you!

            Yeah? I’ll let her know! She told me her friend at school today was all like, “Omg, they dropped their album,” and she was just like, “That’s great, but gurl, I’ma sleep first.” She said she needs sleep and will check ’em out afterwards. Lol. She said she doesn’t feel the need to “be the first.” She’s become a much more relaxed and calming Army, that girl. Or maybe it’s just the lack of sleep. She’ll probably be yappin’ about ’em later once she sees/hears it.

          $$$$ and they probably condition themselves to be able to do that haha

          It contributes to the real community feel, and since it’s part of the site, nobody gets antsy about it not being on topic or whatever, like DB has made that space where anything is acceptable to talk about almost and I like that.

          Mmm no I don’t remember either. Please link 😀 if you can find it 😀

          Hahahahaha that’s probably a good thing that she’s calmer! (maybe) Funnily enough I was there within the first 15 seconds and 11 views, but Korean comebacks post at my 9PM which is a totally reasonable hour to be on YT watching things. If it was still 2AM, and I had school or work and didn’t have time to listen, I am perfectly capable of waiting when necessary haha.

Those are Melona popsicles. A Korean honeydew melon flavoured popsicle that are QUITE POSSIBLY the BEST popsicles in the world (hyperbole intended). Funnily enough I first had them in Colorado when we went to the Asian Mart there, but in Korea there was a 7/11 right next to my hostel and I had at least two a day (not kidding). And THEN I found out that the new Asian supermarket in my area has them… oh boy. I bought a whole box. And now I am addicted to them. And they also do mango ones and strawberry ones that taste like strawberry milk and… my point? HOW COULD YOU DROP THREE PERFECTLY GOOD MELONA POPSICLES ON THE GROUND! HOW COULD YOU. THAT’S SUCH A WASTE OF SUCH A GOOD ICE BAR!!!! I got so mad, so sad when I saw that… *smh*
Okay.
Rant over.
Moral: Try Melona popsicles. They’re amazing. I only have two left in my freezer though… :’(

    I scrolled down to see the screen caps before reading what you wrote and I was like one does NOT simply drop three Melonas on the ground!!!

      RIGHT?!?! THEY WEREN’T EVEN HALF FINISHED EITHER. I don’t care how hot the girl/or guy is… I wouldn’t drop a melona for anything.

        I guess I would drop a Melona if it meant I would instantly get a whole box of Melonas for dropping that one Melona ?

    What a waste! I hope they didn’t retake this scene many times though.

    I love Melona…I had it for dessert almost everyday until I moved companies and no Kmart anywhere.
    and I do buy boxes whenever I chance upon a Kmart…never mind the weird looks I get from the store owners

        According to my google skillz, they may be available at my regular grocery store and I now have a second excuse to go shopping tomorrow. (I’m also out of chocolate digestives and so my afternoon tea has suffered.) Now the question is whether to start with melon or mango…I’m more of a mango girl, but the melon intrigues me.

          I’m making excited faces hehehe.
          Personally, whilst I like both the strawberry and mango (haven’t had the banana yet), I still come back to the Melon one… but! If they’re sold individually, just get one of each! hehe

    You know, I’ve seen these in my area, yet I’ve never bought them based on the fact that I’m not a big fan of honeydew melon. I like melon, just not honeydew for whatever reason.

    Given that I do like ice cream/popsicles/ice desserts though, I should give these a try. I may be pleasantly surprised, right?

      … TRY IT ANYWAY! Or at least one of the other flavours! I love that so many people are going to go and try find these now… just because I ranted about them being dropped hehehe

    LMAO! The way you started I thought you were talking about a grave environmental issue or something- like these ice-creams actually have this banned substance in it! 😛

    And now I can’t stop giggling! And googling whether it is available at a place near me!

    Lawl! But aww, Dan-ah, though! She’s all dolled up! I was expecting it to be her friend, but didn’t expect it to be her! Oops, not important! Melona’s the point here–that’s right! Haha, how DARE they drop those precious Melona popsicles! Tsk tsk. I’ve definitely eaten the melon flavored ones before, but never realized they came in so many more flavors! Must. Try. The. Others.

      I love that you’re just scrolling through my wall right now and commenting on everything (because you know I’d do the same to you keke)
      Hahahaha Dan Ah does look amazing yes… but not enough to drop three of them 😛
      YES. DO IT. JOIN THE CULT. Idk that’s not a thing it’s just funny that this post has made so many people who like them want more, or who haven’t had them want to go try them

        Haha, you can totally tell that’s what I’m doing, can’t you? Aw, yeah, you were a regular in my Moorim Madness posts! Good times, good times.

        You’re right! I can easily be taken aback at someone’s hotness/check them out WHILE still holding food that I was eating. Heck, I’d probably still eat the food AS I check ’em out. They’re n00bs, man. Hahaha. Now I want a Melona pop. But hee, yes! I love that about this post, too! I’ll definitely shout you out when I get my hands on some Melona pops next time!

            Hmm… for you or for me? Haha, you’re doing it now w/ TLaHL, no?
            Y’know, Moorim Madness After Party never happened, but now I think it’s too late. But then again, it’s never to late to share random K-drama goodies, right? I actually still have some photosets of Moorim cast on Hello Counselor (didja know they were on HC???) on my phone that I’ve yet to post, too, so…

            Haha, first the Noryangjin idiots, now the knucklehead trio! Somethin’ about threes, man…

          Idk either or… but I like posting on your wall lol. IF YOU DO AOY2 THOUGH I CAN COMMENT ON ALL OF THOSE YES MWAHAHA.
          I am but I don’t know how regularly we’ll be watching… hopefully semi regularly?
          Awww it’s never to late at all! Plus those were super popular and ofc… LHW always gets likes… I did not.. know that…

          Oooh what are they from? Is that TLAHL? *is clueless rn* haha THREES. THREES ARE THE BEST. Anything cut into triangles automatically tastes better… and do you know how many types of fruit have natural three segments? And I find things lined up in threes very aesthetically pleasing, like the rule of thirds in art… okay so threes are everywhere in art, history, maths, religion, and more so I’ll stop…

            Haha, do you really? That’s cute, I love your comments!
            OMG YES, FOR SURE I’LL POST ABOUT AOY2 ESPECIALLY MY BABES CHOI ARA/JO EUN AND KIM MIN-SEOK/JANG HOON! <333 I'll share ALL DA CUTE!

            As long as your guys' buddy watch doesn't drag on for a whole year! Haha.
            Ha, maybe maybe I'll make the Moorim Madness After Party post one day!
            Yeah, I was so excited to find out they were on HC! I really really liked Moorim School! Hahaha.

            Nope, the Noryangjin idiots were from Drinking Solo! I didn’t watch the drama, but I just know they referred to the three friends as the Noryangjin idiots. Key was one of ’em! I learned from @obsessedmuch that Key was another one of your faves, haha.

            Oh wow, didn’t know I was missing out on so many goodies about THREES! Triangular shape = better taste–that’s true? And no, what kind of fruits have natural three segments? Now I’ll probably pay more attention to things in threes!
            Funny thing, three is actually @mochime‘s favorite number! Haha.

          I mean, it might just be because I get attention for it but I do also enjoy it. 😛
          YASSSSSSSS PLEASE! Personally I’m loving Sungmin and Jiwon, but I also love that duo. They’re adorable and the height difference is great and I love KMS.

          I will do my VERY best to make sure that DOESN’T happen hahaha.
          Do it hahaha you’ll get traffic even if it is just for LHW 😉 🙂

          Oooooooh ok! That is relatively high on my to watch list! Been there for while but you know.
          Key has great bone structure, fantastic eyebrows and is my sassy diva SHINee bias. 😛

          I mean, it probably doesn’t ACTUALLY taste better, but I think it is more fun to eat and therefore tastes “better” hehehe
          Bananas, capsicum, and cucumber are the only three that I can remember right now, but some kinds of tomatoes also… aaaand I’m blanking. (And yes cucumber is technically a fruit :P)
          Oooh really? Tis a good number 😀

    I HAD to find the rant that is sending Beanies into a frenzy looking for them! I LOVE Melona Bars! One of my friends from uni gave me one (on a rare hot summer day) after buying a box to restock his fridge. I just handed it to my mom (who was waiting to pick me up), and by the time I came back (not even a minute later) she had finished it. But Melona bars! They are by far the most underrated ice cream at the Asian supermarkets UNTIL you try them! 😋😉

      I love them too! As you may have gathered from this post haha.
      :O :O Hahaha oh no! A melona thief! hehehe
      They’re so good right. THey’re probably really bad for you (I looked at the ingredients) but I don’t care because they’re amazing and I only have one left now… hahaha

    HA! @mochime gets on every once in a blue moon, maybe makes a new post, and sticks around for a few comments, and then *poof* she’s gone like the wind! But she’s really not, because she’s still here in the house–just doing other stuff. Haha.

    This is sweet, though! *is excited because you’re excited* I have SO MANY photosets that I’ve yet to post, and I don’t even know where to start!

        Will do! She says the same thing to me every now and then, too. “Tell Sicarius I said ‘hi’.”

        Ha, that’s today! She’s been saying, “Their comeback is gonna be out at 4am… but it’s a school day… but…” She was also saying how she was overwhelmed with their comeback since they’re so big now, so many new armies, etc.

            Haha, I’ll let her know you feel the same. But yeah, their popularity has definitely shot pretty high up there. They always had a pretty big international fanbase, but it’s most likely gotten bigger after they won the Billboard Awards, which, so so proud of them!

          Seeing as it’s almost 5am there? Gosh, you’ll be getting up soon haha.

          It’s got bigger because of a few things. HYYH era, so I need U, Dope and Fire, that was the start. Then Blood Sweat and Tears had every man and his dog reacting to it, and the YT viewers went crazy over that.
          And THEN the Billboards happened… so yeah O.o
          It’s nice to know I’m not the only fan who overwhelmed? hmm yes

            I wanted to get to all my notifications before I signed off. When I thought I got to all of it, I realized I still had a couple more of yours to get to!

            Lol @ “every man and his dog”!
            Yep, you’re definitely not the only one that feels that way. I can kind of understand you guys, even though I’m not an Army. Like, K-dramas and like, K-pop culture has such a special place in my heart that when I see how popular it all is, a part of me’s like, “That’s amazing,” but another part of me’s also like, “Ehhh, but I don’t really want it to be that big.” But that’s really just the negative and jealous part of me that I’m not very proud of.

          Hahahaha yeas and now I have lots of tabs open to reply to YET AGAIN.

          I said it as an idiom but now that I think about there’s a 80+% chance that there is a ‘My Cat reacts to Kpop/BTS’ video.

          Well no. I don’t think it’s always a negative thing to think like that. I think we all think that about the things we like. We don’t really want it to become mainstream. And also, particularly with BTS, and K-culture, but with everything, the more followers something has, the more haters their are, and more judgement because of that bigger fanbase. Thus there is more toxicity and less authenticity, when people just use it for views, click bait, or to be “in trend”.
          I’m very glad that Block B and FTI have very niche fanbases, because there is less of that. And also my metal music. Metal music is super niche, and metal heads have been round for years, but Metal is not “mainstream” and it’s often refreshing? Because you know people are only there because they like metal, and not because it’s the thing to like and follow.
          So I totally get that sentiment towards Kpop. I like that the world is slowly learning about the music of other cultures but I don’t like HOW it’s learning about them
          Take for example, Despacito. Latin Pop song, made popular because of Justin Bieber. And you have people all shocked that it’s so big and I’m like ‘Latin Pop is huge, so is South American, and it’s fanbase is crazy and yet you people are surprised that it’s so big please educate yourself on the world.’ Same goes with Kpop. People are surprised that this is a big thing, and it’s like YOURS IS NOT THE ONLY COUNTRY THAT EXISTS. So whilst I WANT people to know that other tv and music exists, to expand their cultural mind set, I’m also like ‘is it worth it for their ignorance to impede on something I enjoy?’ which I guess… hahaha is a bit asshole-ish of me but yeah.
          Anyway, sorry, rant over haha

        Runaway is good too! I need to give it one more listen all the way through. I didn’t really have time this morning before leaving for work to really listen attentively. In Love was a definite stand out track though. It caught my attention instantly. Sadly, NOT a fan of the song with Mino.

          I’m not not a fan… but it’s one of my least favourites on the album… it’s just sort of there… at the moment anyway.
          I love the lyrics of Runaway. They almost made me cry.
